Bloodstained Legacy
Don't Own Naruto Dammit!!!
#4
(Leaf)
(Hokage Tower)
"Why wasn't I sent?" Sakura asked as she sat down.
"You're not train to fight in mist battles,"
"Mist battles? I know the country is covered in mist but...,"
"The mist limits sight for those not trained to see through it, also you need the ability to adapt with the mist. The mist has a psychological effect as well a physical effect on battles. We're dealing with Akatsuki and they've probably mastered these traits,"
"But they'll need a medic for injuries..,"
"Haku is a trained Hunter-Nin from the Mist meaning she's trained in medicine and medic skills. While not as advance as yours or mine, it's best suited for the battlegrounds,"
"Why send Kaoru?"
"Who sent her? She's a renegade Nin with no home village so she can do whatever she wishes,"
"So who is the forth member?"
(Water)
(ON A BOAT)
"So what's your story with the Kiri?" Kaoru asked her travelling partners.
"Ever heard of the Bloody Mist Revolt?"
"The revolt was by one of that swordsman right?"
"Naruto and I were part of the Leaf's reinforcement teams," Hatch explained.
Naruto was sound asleep. Haku was looking over the edge watching the landscape.
"Haku was Zabuza's apprentice. Zabuza was the one who started the revolt,"
"Then shouldn't she in jail then?"
"Naruto helped her out. Haku was an orphan who was adopted by Zabuza. She didn't believe in the revolt, more she believed in Zabuza. Personally, Haku is like Naruto so he helped her out,"
"He's kind but that's pretty bad for a ninja,"
"You can't predict him. He may be kind and nice one second, then the next he becomes a merciless demon. Do you know how the revolt ended?"
"Zabuza's side was massacred. A single ninja kill a good two-thirds of them,"
"The mist turned bloody red. Treasonous blood rain upon the demon. The demon striking all that came close. Truly this is a day of bloody mist. The Bloody Mist Massacre,"
"What's that?"
"An poem from someone who watched it. They called it the bloody mist massacre because of that poem. The name of the 'demon' was not mentioned,"
"Who was that demon then?" Hatch pointed his thumb over his shoulder at Naruto, "The Demon that made the mist red with blood,"
(NARUTO DREAM SCAPE)
Naruto looked at the area. Bloody and malted bodies lay all around.
"This old dream I see," Naruto turned around as a green haired girl walked into existence from nowhere.
"Gen? I guess this because I'm heading back to the Mist now," Naruto stated as he looked around.
"The place of a massacre and my death right? What was worst for you?"
"Your death lead to the massacre,"
"Are you still afraid of 'that'arent you?"
"I'm not fearful of it but I will not use it unless I've lost everything,"
"Power can drive you but you must control the power. Don't let the power control you,"
"That was emotion, Gen. Emotion can drive you but you control the emotion Don't let the emotion control you,"
"I was never good with that poetic crap, Kai said," Gen shrugged her shoulders, "I think it's time you woke up. See ya in your dreams,"
(BOAT)
"Wake up," Hatch stated as he shook Naruto. He shook his head as he took a few steps back then started to dash. He pulled his leg back and kicked. Naruto arms moved and caught Hatch's kick.
"What's up?"
"Trouble," Hatch stated as the door burst open as several men with sabres drawn charged in.
"Hand over all of your treasure or else I get ugly," One yelled.
"You can get more ugly man?" Naruto joked.
"What? I'll show you to keep your ...," A kunai entered his mouth and came out the back of his head.
"What the fu...," The other were blasted back through the door.
"Why the hell did you wake me up for this?" Naruto asked as he yawned.
"You want to miss the action? The whole deck with filled with pirates," Hatch stated.
"You take care of it. I'm going back to sleep,"
"You're no fun," Hatch stated as he walked out.
(ON DECK)
A few pirate dropped dead as Kaoru held her poisonous daggers in her hands. A few more dropped as Haku threw more senbons.
"I'm not the best for this type of fighting," Haku stated as she started to go through seals.
"Suiton suiryuudan no jutsu," A water dragon exploded from the sea and attacked a group of pirates that just came aboard.
"Nice work," Hatch stated as he came from below, "Naruto's sleeping and he's not in a fighting mood,"
"Damn. He's best with this whole mass destruction,"
"Not only him," Hatch stated as he back kicked a pirate in the face.
"Then please display your skills," Hatch cracked his knuckles as an evil grin appeared n his face as his veins started to pop out around his eyes.
"17 pirates? Too easy," Hatch stated as chakra started to flow from his legs and arms."I have been working on this for a while now. Demon Flame," Hatch streaked across the deck. He seemed to bounce off each pirates as he moved. Each pirate were thrown to the air. Haku saw smoke coming from the struck areas. Hatch stopped in the middle of the deck and dropped on his butt out of breath.
"Ora!!" Hatch was overshadowed as someone jumped down from top of the sails. This one wielded a claymore sword which was coming down on Hatch.
"Oh shit," Hatch whispered as the swordsman crashed down on him.
"Hatch!!" Haku yelled as she rushed to the scene with senbon ready to strike. The dust settled with the sword halfway through the deck floor. Hatch was standing over the sword with his left hand holding the sword down and his right hand holding the swordsman's throat.
"It's been a while Reina," Hatch stated as he let go and started to walk away.
"Ora!" Reina pulled out the sword and charged again, "Don't turn your back to an enemy!!"
"Wind slash," Reina was blasted by a gust of wind.
"My back is turn but it's watched," Hatch stated as Naruto walked out of the cabins.
"Hey Reina! Long time no see," Naruto stated as Reina stumbled to her feet.
"You two gotten stronger," Reina stated as she stood up and put her sword away. Most of her body were hidden.
"Of course. I got the nickname the Executioner for a reason," Hatch stated as he stood proud which ended quickly as Naruto kicked from behind.
"Stop trying to act cool," Naruto stated.
"You two haven't changed," Reina said as she stood with her hands on her hips.
"Why are you here?" Hatch asked.
"I'm your fourth," Reina smiled.
"Oh boy,"
"Oro?"
(MAINLAND)
"So where to?" Naruto asked as they got off the ship. They were all wearing jacket or coats as it poured from the heavens.
"The targets were seen heading for the ice field where legend says Poseidon resides," Reina stated, "We should meet up with the other Mist team on the way,"
"Anyone we know?" Hatch asked.
"I don't know," Reina stated as she walked for the city.
"Have you guys noticed it?" Naruto asked as walked by Hatch.
"Three of them," Hatch stated.
"You think I should...," Haku stated.
"Leave them for now," Naruto stated as he started to followed Reina.
"What's with him?" Koaru asked as she walked off the ship.
"He's always on edge with mission to foreign countries. His history with other countries isn't very good," Hatch stated as he started to walk.
(KONOHA)
Mist started to fill the fields.
"I'll demonstrate a combat in the mists," Kakashi stated as he completed the jutsu, "I can't use it as effective as Haku but I can show some pointers," Sakura lost sight of Kakashi in the thick mist. "This normally takes away sight. Ninjas like Haku are trained to use the mist to replace sight. I don't understand completely myself," Kakashi's voice seemed to come from all over the place.
"So what?" Sakura asked as she started to turn around as she heard sound.
"Tracking the sound is nearly impossible if your opponent is a Mist-Nin," Kakashi whispered as Sakura found a kunai held at her throat, "They specializes in silent killings," Sakura spun around and back fist Kakashi, but Kakashi splashed into water. Sakura tensed up her arms prepared to attack.
"The mist can also be just a distraction," Sakura found herself being pulled into the ground.
"This concludes the lesson. I don't have the ability to display all of the disadvantage of fighting in the mist," Kakashi said as he pulled out his favorite book and walked away.
"Then how can Naruto or Kaoru fight in the mist,"
"For Naruto, it's from experiences and instinct from what I can understand. I don't know the exact details myself and Kaoru, I don't know," Kakashi said before he disappeared.
(MIST)
The ninjas looked up from their weapons as Reina walked into the room.
"Hey guys. I got the team from the Leaf," Reina stated as the rest of them walked in.
"I thought they were only three,"
"She's just following us. She'll get in the way if we let her do her own thing," Hatch explained as he pulled off his hood.
"Hatch the Executioner I get it," One stated.
"Executioner?" Naruto whispered.
"A new nickname," Hatch whispered.
"So who are you?" The leader of the group asked
"The Demon," Naruto stated.
"Demon?" One asked.
"Uzumaki Naruto," Another stated. The other three just jumped out of their skin.
"You mean he's the Bloody Mist demon? Dual blood?"
"Atobe," Naruto stated. Atobe stood up, towering over Naruto. He has short spiky black hair and dark blue eyes. He wore dark thick blue eyes with metal arm and shin protector. The lower half of his face was hidden by a black scarf.
"You know each other?" Reina asked.
"We've fought before on missions," Naruto stated as he leaned against the wall.
"And you're both alive?" Reina asked.
"Since we both know who you two are, can we continue with the introductions?" Haku asked as she walked.
"Haku!?" The three reached for their weapons but found them none.
"They're real jumpy aren't they?" Hatch asked as he pointed to the three.
"What is she doing here?" One asked.
"She's with us. If you got a problem with that, you have to deal with the Leaf," Naruto stated.
"Here," Haku threw the weapons back to them, "Seems like they're letting anything into the Anbu,"
"Anyways, this isn't the place for this. By the way, who's her?" Atobe asked as he pointed to Kaoru.
"Renegade," Kaoru stated, "I'm just here to kill one of your targets. Don't mind me,"
"I'm Daimon," He had chains wrapped around his wrists and waist and was a big guy.
"I'm Iori," He was short one with a scythe and chain in hand.
"Kira," He has two katanas on his back and was medium build.
"Here's the situation so far. The southern area of the country has a large number of glaciers. According to data from Jiraiya, Akatsuki is looking for Poseidon,"
"Isn't that a myth?"
"Gaea or Mother Nature is in the same class as Poseidon. Poseidon is no myth and Akatsuki is after them. They seem to have trouble finding Poseidon since there are four members of Akatsuki here but this makes it double or more times dangerous,"
"Any clues who?"
"Only two have been confirmed. Hikaru and Gora," Iori stated, "The other two are ...,"
"I can sense Rosa," Kaoru interupted.
"So Jin should be here," Naruto stated.
"We don't have much on Gora and the others but we do know Hikaru," Atobe stated as he pulled out a scroll and unrolled it.
"She's a 19 years old Missing-Nin from the Mist. She is able to use ice jutsu like Haku,"
"No. She's stronger than me with Ice Jutsu," Haku added.
"Ok. She's also a weapon master. She has a large array of weapon at her disposal from katana to chains and etc. She became missing due to her torturous nature. She liked to play with her enemy too much that she was restricted to a number of missions she could take. She didn't like it and went rouge,"
"Anything to add Haku?" Naruto asked.
"Don't get distracted by her with anything. A moment's distraction can find yourself frozen,"
"Ok. So far, we have two Stone-Nins, one Mist-Nin and one Grass-Nin," Hatch stated, "All are Class S Missing-Nin. I'm working with what I know. The two teams will spilt up to search for Poseidon. You guys know anything to the location of Poseidon?"
(KONOHA)
Sakura let out a breath as she looked over the medic records to be added.
"Naruto? Tsunade must have checked him when he came back," Sakura said as she picked up the report. She read over the report and nearly dropped it.
(MIST)
(Rein City)
"So why are we here?" Hatch asked as he looked around.
"Information. There's someone who have a lot of information on old myths. My brother and his team are also collecting information on the other members of Akatsuki," Reina stated, "We're looking for an old man,"
"Who are you calling an old man?" Reina was suddenly flipped into the air. The other was ready to attack to find an aged man. He had a short white beard. He stood straight up over them. In his left hand was a metal cane.
"They called me Leo," Leo stated.
"Leo?"
"He was called Lionheart when he was younger but they just call him Leo now," Reina explained as she stood up and dusted herself off.
"So why are you here Reina and who are your guests?"
"This is Naruto, Haku, Hatch and Kaoru," Reina stated.
"Haku as in Zabuza's old apprentice, Hatch the Executioner of the Leaf and Kaoru the Angel of Death. Also the infamous Naruto. What do I call you now? Can't really call you Dual Blood now," Leo stated.
"You know?"
"You lost your Red Cross and Sharingan abilities? My intelligence network is vast and grand. So what, may I ask, is the purpose of your visit?" He asked.
"Poseidon,"
"Ah. The legendary god of water who now slumber in the sea of ice,"
"You have anything that may help us find it?"
"Follow me," He turned around and walked away with them in toll.
(Leo's House)
Naruto looked around as he came into the house. There were countless scrolls laying around the place, on the walls, tables, floor and even windows. Naruto turned back to Leo who had sat down.
"I didn't want anyone to hear this. Poseidon will not reveal itself to just anyone. Only those who master both the air and the sea. The legendary god of water, who now slumber in the sea of ice. Waiting…" he read.
"Waiting for what?"
"The scroll is ripped," Leo held up the scroll.
"What's wrong?" Hatch asked as he looked over at Reina.
"Leo doesn't give out information with something in return," Reina stated.
"True. I want to find out the rest of this. To find the story of Poseidon," Leo stated as he stood up.
"So only an Ice user can find Poseidon?"
"A master Ice user. Only two people have ever mastered wind, water and ice," Leo exlapined.
"Hikaru and I," Haku replied.
"Yes,"
"Shit. Hikaru's with them,"
"Here. These are scrolls I believe may assist you. Just remember to tell me the story afterwards,"
(LEAF)
(Hokage Office)
"This is serious sensei," Sakura stated as she pointed to report.
"I know," Tsunade replied.
"You knew?"
"I already inform Naruto of his conidition. He said he could feel it,"
"But why now of all times?"
"A tremendous amount of stress, the strain of his own training regiment and his own abilities,"
"But you still sent him out to the field?"
"This won't become a direct problem for a short while. Anyways, Naruto won't die so easily,"
"But no one can live without a beating heart," Sakura stated.
(MIST)
Naruto left out a breath as the boat rocked again. He grabbed the scrolls before they rolled off the table.
"Just got a note from my brother," Reina held up the note, "They already arrived at the ice fields and are searching,"
"Hey Naruto, you said you fought this Atobe before? You think he can fight Akatsuki?" Kaoru asked.
"Atobe's a trickster,"
"What?" Reina yelled.
"When I fought him, it was one of the few times, I had to use all the stops," Naruto stated, "He has many deadly tricks he uses to advert your attention but if you don't be aware of those tricks, they could kill you,"
"He has a wide view of the battle and a highly tuned battle sense. He's strong," Haku added, "When I sparred with him, he was strong but I'm still stronger,"
"Hey! My brother's gotten stronger!!"
"I'm stronger than him before," Haku stated, "I'm way much stronger than before,"
"Yeah you traitorous bitch," Reina whispered. She quickly found herself pinned to the wall with senbons just short of his eyes.
"I fought for what I believed, unlike you who march out on an old crazy man's orders," Haku stated.
"So you turned your back to everyone? You bitch!!" Reina drew her blade and swung as Naruto, who had his back to the cat fight, took in a breath. Suddenly Haku and Reina found themselves pinned to the wall. Haku by her senbons and Reina with her own sword. They looked around then settled to Naruto as he let out the breath.
"Calm down you two. If you're going to fight, do on dry lands so we don't have to swim to shore," Naruto spoke with his back to them.
'What did he do?' Haku thought s as she pulled out the senbons and fell down. She went to her quarters and Reina headed for the deck.
"Nice trick. Learn it when you were away?" Hatch asked as he walked. He picked up a scroll, "The scrolls about Hikaru and Gora. Gora was originally a miner with a thirst for battle. He joined the Stone then left after a lack of battle situation," Hatch looked up at Naruto,
"He's physically strong from his childhood of mining. Strange thing is, there are at least 3 scrolls for Hikaru, Gora and Rosa but barely anything on Jin,"
"Jin. Nothing special until he was 12. Disappeared. Appeared when he was 21 with a giant sword and massacred a squadron of Stone Jounins. That's a general report," Hatch stated as he sat down.
"Yeah," Naruto stated.
"In simple power, you can't match Ryo," Hatch stated as he looked over the short report.
"Huh? What?"
"The Earth Dragons are known for their physical power. From what I remember, Dragon Seal only work for people similar to them. Fire Dragons are offense and you're that," Hatch stated, "Offense is more than just power,"
(MIST GLACIERS)
"Dammit!!" Ryo came down from the sky and spilt the glacier with his sword. He stood on water as chunks of the glacier up to the surface, "Not here,"
"I can see that. I hate the damn cold," Rosa complained as finished her seals and slammed her hands into the glacier, "Doton. Earthquake," Her glacier shattered.
"Nope," Rosa stated with a sneeze.
"Do we actually have a better clue where we can find this Piss don is?" Ryo asked.
"It's Poseidon and no other clues. I can feel it's near by but it's vague," Rosa stated as she looked around.
(Shadow World)
"He's still growing. He's good but he's no match for Class S," Kage stated as he looked at the image, "He has the ability to fight and beat them but his mental state is a bit off. He came here as a tactician type then to wake his bloodline; he had to listen to his instinct. He's need to find a balance of the two. The mind and body must be in sync for the complete awakening,"
"An evolutionary step," Yuki stated, "He need to step forward. If he can't fight these underlings then he has no chance against Deamon," She stood up and walked away from the image.
Author's Notes
Thanks to Loon Luu for pre-reading. Hey Dragon and Sword Master. Are you around?
Btw Auel Nader. Abusing the copy and paste much? Just joking.
Here's the next chapters of Bloodstained Legacy. It's isn't that action. Just mostly set up. I should be coming out with Bloodstained Path soon and Bloodstained Hands after it but who knows for sure? I got mid-terms to deal with first.
Sorry. I posted the rough draft of the story before.
Cya later and hope you review.
